<section name="Which Services and Cloud Providers Are Supported by Whirr&#153;?"></section>
<p>Whirr uses
<a class="externalLink" href="http://code.google.com/p/jclouds/">jclouds</a> for provisioning,
so in principle it should support all the cloud providers that jclouds supports. The following
table shows the cloud provider and service combinations that have been tested.</p>
<table align="center" border="0">

<p>For development and local testing we are also supporting the BYON (bring your own nodes)
jclouds provider. Check the
<i>recipes</i> folder for a configuration sample.</p>
<subsection name="What server operating systems are supported?"></subsection>
<p>Each release is tested by running the integration tests on Ubuntu Server 10.04. All setup
scripts should also work on Centos 5.x but we don't have a formal testing procedure in place
right now.</p>
